We’ve been the lamenting the lack of a boy band reunion in 2014, after recent years that brought us NKOTBSB, 98 Degrees, and even an *NSYNC reunion for a brief but glorious moment at the VMAs last year! After much speculation, O-Town announced they will be reuniting for a tour and album this fall! Unfortunately the bands’ most famous member, Ashley Parker Angel, appears to have better things to do and won’t be part of this.
While O-Town was never a priority in our boy band fangirling days, who doesn’t remember their single “Liquid Dreams?” Looking back, we aren’t sure why this song was played at middle school dances, but it was a huge Top 10 single for America’s 5th most popular boy band. Watch the video below and enjoy having it stuck in your head for the rest of the day!
The reunion comes 10 years after the bands’ breakup, and O-Town is calling the reunion a “new beginning.” The band started thinking of a reunion just for the fun of it, to give fans a chance to see them perform old songs, and it ended up sparking new ideas and developing into new music. We’re hoping that *NSYNC felt some of this in their reunion last year, and are secretely working on new music as well! (Remember Justin Timberlake is a master of recording in secret. It can be done).

As we’ve said before, Good Morning America gets all of the important fangirl announcements! This morning, Nick Carter and Jordan Knight stopped by to drop huge news: they recorded an album together, Nick & Knight, and are going on tour this fall!
The album will be released on September 2nd. Pre-orders are up now at NickandKnight.com, and you’ll receive a digital download of their first single “Just The Two of Us” instantly!
We’ve seen collabs from within boybands before (such as Jordan Knight’s “Stingy” feat Donnie Wahlberg), but this is the first cross-boyband duo in history. Since NKOTBSB was pretty much the greatest thing that has ever happened in the history of boybands, we are beyond thrilled for Nick & Knight!
Tickets go on sale Friday, May 2nd at 10am local time. And don’t forget NKOTBSB are a close knit bunch – you never know who could stop by your show! When we saw Jordan Knight in NYC, Donnie Wahlberg & Jonathan Knight stopped by.

Their show at the Theater at Madison Square Garden last fall was one of our favorite moments of 2013. We’ve never seen such a high energy performance (or so much confetti!) and we’re looking forward to seeing them again!
It’s no secret that we are huge fans of Dan + Shay, and have been impatiently waiting to finally see them on Hunter Hayes’ “We Are Not Invisible Tour” in May! We’ve had their debut album, “Where It All Began,” on repeat since it was released, and they have the perfect sound for an outdoor summer concert. Their single, “19 You + Me” just went gold this week!
They’ll be on tour with Hunter Hayes and Blake Shelton this summer, and have a few festival dates as well. Check out all of Dan + Shay’s upcoming tour dates below!
Now what do we have to do to get them to have a headlining show in NYC?
You can also meet Dan + Shay at most shows, either by getting a “Dan + Shay + You” VIP experience, or at a signing post show. Be sure to follow Dan + Shay on Twitter for the location! Fangirl Tip: If you bring or buy a copy of their album, you can go to the front of the line.

Are you ready for AJR? The band, comprised of brothers Adam, Jack and Ryan Met, has quickly gained momentum since their single “I’m Ready” was released last fall. The video recently passed 1 million views on Youtube! The song has since entered radio rotation around the country, and doesn’t look like it’s slowing down any time soon. It’s impossible to hear this song and not clap along!
The brothers stopped by Saturday Night Online over the weekend to officially premiere the single and to answer a few fan questions. When we heard “I’m Ready” on the radio for the first time last week, we had a total That Thing You Do moment! (Shout out to 106.1 BLI for the AJR love!)
AJR will be playing the 106.1 BLI Summer Jam with artists like Austin Mahone, Jason Derulo, and Cody Simpson on June 1st at Nikon Jones Beach Theatre, as well as a few other radio shows around the country. You can also see AJR opening for Lindsey Stirling on her summer tour! Check out all the dates below!

Following a performance on SNL that had everyone talking, Ed Sheeran announced he is heading out on tour! He will be in arenas across North America starting in August.
Check out “Sing,” the first single from his sophomore album, “X,” which is due out June 23rd worldwide. You can pre-order it now! The track was co-written & co-produced by Pharrell, and while it’s definitely a new sound for Sheeran, we’re curious to see how the rest of his album will follow. We saw Ed open for Taylor Swift on the Red tour last year, and were majorly impressed by his performance, especially during “You Need Me, I Don’t Need You.”

You never know where you’ll find you new favorite band: it could be on YouTube, from a commercial you looked up on Shazam, busking in a park, opening for your favorite artist. In this case, it was reading an ad for BBM in Rolling Stone that led us to The Strypes.
Ross Farrelly, Josh McClorey, Pete O’Hanlon and Evan Walsh make up the quartet, hailing from Cavan, Ireland. Their debut album, Snapshot, was released last month in the US. It’s hard to believe they are only 16-18 years old, as they have a sound way beyond their years, drawing influences from The Yardbirds, The Rolling Stones and The Animals. They also remind us of more contemporary acts like The Vines and Arctic Monkeys.
They just wrapped up a US tour, which included a sold out stop at NYC’s Bowery Ballroom, a performance on The Late Show with David Letterman, and a rave review from Rolling Stone. We unfortunately missed seeing them this time around, so we’re hoping they’ll be back stateside soon!
The Strypes will be performing all over Europe through the Spring and Summer, check out the dates below!
